Michael McCarthy (Labour)

I will withdraw the amendment. I wish to refer to some aspects of the Minister's contribution. He said he cannot agree to the amendments in this legislative form. There is no other arena in which I will be successful in getting the amendment across. I recognise what the Minister has said. The spirit is there and it is about protecting the consumer. I acknowledge that he agrees with the spirit of the amendments, but as the seanchaí says, there the story rests.
